Angelic Upstarts Mr Politician Lyrics

Mr Politician Lyrics





Mr. Position sitting on your perch

Looking at the numbers, thinking what we’re worth



You’re price is your conscience when though it allowed

So put your finger infidel

We’re only good when we’re down



What can we say what suspense?

From the wings of democracy they say is right

So we can go forth with hand in hand

listen to our betters make dead a man

but don’t forget where you’ve come from

Down at the bottom where you belong



Would it do any good if I voted for a leech?

Maybe the leech would practice what he preached



They don’t give a fuck

They don’t give a toss

Your vote for a pig, it wont be no loss



Mr. Position sitting on your perch

Looking at the numbers, thinking what we’re worth



You’re price is your conscience when though it allowed

So put your finger infidel

We’re only good when we’re down



Mr. Politician

Mr. Politician

Mr. Politician

Practice what you preach
